definitely not chicken pox, they've got heads on em like pimples, and I don't have any of the symptoms, and the spots are quite localised, not all over, none on my legs, for example.
The party is held in Man U's function rooms, no contact with footballers at all, which is just as well really (although I quite like Rio Ferdinand - yes I know I have strange taste in men). I've been there twice before for parties, it's ok but not great, the food is usually pretty awful. Last year I went when I had just started the whole healthy eating thing, and the dessert was so horrible I couldn't eat it, and I can ALWAYS manage a sweet!
Are you sure it's not shingles luvey? My husband just had a bout with shingles a few months ago, he thought he'd got nasty knat bites or something, as they were itchy, but the next day a few appeared in different places, I sent him to the doctors as I thought it could be shingles and indeed it was... he got some heavy meds to take and it's taken until now to get rid of them...
I hope your's isn't anything like that and they go away soon, but if I were you, I'd make that appointement for two weeks cos if it is something nasty, you'll want some help getting rid of it
I've just been out for a run, and did about 10k/6 miles. It was meant to be 7 -8 miles, but as i was the first run in the new trainers I didn't want to go too far in them before i've broken them in a bit, so I cut it a bit short, but over the course of the week I've made a couple of my other runs a bit longer so I'm only about half a mile short for the week which isn't too bad.
today I really should make a start on the pile of old clothes. It's time to chuck them out. I never intend to wear a 22, a 20 or an 18 again. I'm even considering chucking some of the 16s!
Keep the 18's I can't afford new clothes at present, and I'm shrinking. The spots are going. I think we've worked it out. The spots are around my bra and pants areas, as well as my face. I bought new underwear in the sales, and have been carefully handwashing it in Persil Silk Wash, and I think that is the culprit! The spots are improving by the day, and I have had no new ones appear since Thursday.
The nurses at work could eliminate shingles (and I haven't had chicken pox and the two are normally connected) So I look as if I am on the mend!
The party was ok, I didn't know anyone except my friend, and we sat on a table on our own, as her workmates all sat together and took up a whole table. After a false start, we were joined by some Scousers, one was particularly hilarious. He was really tall, bald as a badger, with odd teeth missing, and looked just like the guy from Rocky Horror Show, and had huge sticky up veins on his head. He was a gentle giant and was great fun......... weird old night it was.
And the food was roughly on plan, and I didn't drink, because I didn't feel like it, and I woke up this morning and went for a swim! Aren't I a good girl!!!
I'm well chuffed at the moment, because I bought a really lovely outfit today for my sister's wedding (which is in 6 weeks time), and not only is it just the sort of thing I was looking for, but it was in the sale and instead of having to pay the proper price (£260), I got the whole outfit for £60!!!
I'd dragged poor Kim round the shops for about 4 hours, and had been dithering about one skirt and top combination in Kew, which was lovely and fit really well (size 16!!) but I was put off by the fact that the skirt alone was £90, and with the top and a new pair of shoes (I had none already that would have done the job) it would have pushed the outfit to around £200. When I've still got another 50lbs to go, paying those sorts of prices for one outfit is a little hard to stomach.
Anyway, I was about to give up and head back to Kew and bite the £200 bullet, when I remembered I hadn't looked in East. I found a skirt straight away, a crushed velvet affair in hawthorn (a sort of dark bitter chocolate colour) with amber beading detail around the bottom, and the Gods were smiling because it was the only one left in the shop and it was a size 18. It was a bit big, but not too bad (I can't see me losing too many inches between now and the wedding, and at least it doesn't displace a roll of fat above the waistband), and it was really flattering, but I couldn't find anything that matched properly. Then one of the shop assistants took pity on me and did a Trinny and Suzanna, bringing armfuls of different tops into the changing room (how embarrassing!), one of which was a gorgeous spaghetti strap top and matching sweater/cardigan combo, which was a perfect, perfect match, in the identical hawthorn colour to the skirt, and with matching beading on the straps and neckline of the top, and down the front and on the cuffs of the cardigan.
(BTW by 'cardigan' I don't want you to be imagining some sort of grannyish monstrosity - this is a very dressy little number!)
And to make it all just perfect, the skirt had been knocked down from £125 to £25 (obviously it's so lovely that I'm the only woman in England who liked it enough to buy it! ), and the cardie was £85 knocked down to £25, and the strappy top was £50 knocked down to £10. BARGAIN! And I already have a pair of boots that look really good with it, so I don't even have to splash out on new shoes. What a result!
Even if I carry on losing and it's too big in another couple of months, at those kinds of prices, it doesn't really matter. And in the meantime, I won't feel like a rag-bag at the wedding - the outfit made me feel really feminine and attractive, which is an unusual feeling for me - instead of dreading the wedding, I'm really looking forward to it now!
Anyway, sorry this post has been a bit of an epic, but I was excited so I had to share!
That is so great, and I do know you value your privacy, but there must be pics! We've all done it when we're frocked up!!!!
I love East, I haven't bought in there yet, but I have tried on!!! I thought I might get something there for when I travel to Oz in July. I plan on doing some serious shopping Oz. If I keep losing at the same rate (fat chance lol) I'll be a size 14 by then (and then you drop a dress size once you fly over the tropic of Capricorn, so I'll be a 12!!!)
After typing my post earlier today, I crawled upstairs to read the paper and have a nap, only I didn't read the paper and slept three hours. I have felt so exhausted this week!
